Chilcott seemed to be well on his way to making the majors when, in 1967 while playing for the Winter Haven Mets in the Florida State League, he dived back toward second base when the pitcher tried to pick him off.
Renko even played some first base, hitting .218/~.290/.365 with 8 homers to tie for the team lead with OF Jerry Morales (.248/~.332/.373, 27 steals in 31 tries, 14 triples).
•
All-Stars were 1B Mike Jorgensen (.295/~.353/.407, 19 steals in 22 tries) and pitcher Ron Paul (17-4, 1.74), who was third in the league in ERA and led in wins.
